This is why Wings are > The Beatles

Here’s a pretty rad video to go with Wings’ classic “Magneto & Titanium Man” using footage from several Marvel television shows:

I love Wings, and the last few weeks have brought out my latent love for Spider-Man. It’s absolutely amazing that Paul and Co. sat down and wrote a love song (loosely) from Spidey’s point of view. And kudos to whoever assembled this fantastic video – you are my flavor-of-the-week!
